I need your arms,
To hold me so near.
I need you to whisper,
There's nothing to fear.
After all this time,
Love has knocked on my door.
I'm afraid to look away,
It will be gone once more.
So I cling, I look for shadows,
I ruin my only chance.
My fear only causes damage,
But I can't seem to stop the dance.
I love you so completely,
But I lack the trust you need.
I give into the feelings,
Jealousy, possesion, greed.
You deserve the Angel,
Your heart wants me to be.
How can I keep driving wedges,
Expect you to still love me?
Jake, I'll try to be,
One who makes your heart sing.
Please be patient darling,
Pure love to you, I bring.
I love you for all eternity,
Always and forever I promise thee.
Look in my heart, look in my soul,
Having your love is my only goal.
I know its just a fight,
And it will all return.
But now I miss the passion,
Our love that slowly burns.
Why do I give in...
To the ghosts of yesterday?
Why when I want to be in your arms,
Do I seem to push you away?
Why can't I just accept,
What till now you gave willingly?
Why do I set out,
To destroy love meant eternally?
Knowing you love me,
Doesn't seem to be enough.
I need to feel your warmth,
Your gentle, loving touch.
You call me your Angel,
When it's you that God has sent.
You say I show devotion,
But I wonder there that went.
A devoted Angel,
Would fill your heart with glee.
I sent you in despair,
Then beg love for me.
I wish I could promise,
A love peaceful and calm.
I'm handing you my heart,
Hold it gently in your palm.
